I built a small tool called "Highlight One Thing".
It asks a simple question: what do you want the highlight of your day to be? https://highlight-one-thing.glitch.me/
I built this for the Product Hunt Maker Festival using Coda and Glitch. This idea came to me after my 2nd gen iPad was crashing Nick Burka's One Big Thing app.
I remixed his app with John Zeratsky's and Jake Knapp's Highlight concept from their book, Make Time.
I organized my thoughts around highlights and my journey to focus in one piece. Read it here: https://medium.com/@kunalslab/what-do-you-want-the-highlight...
Hey HN! We're excited to launch the SlidesUp API. SlidesUp is the hub for all your conference planning activities. With our API, you can now build on top of our platform to power your website, app, digital displays, and whatever else you can dream of.
Event organizers have always wanted to collaborate with their team and market their conference as soon as they confirm speakers. With our organizer tools, anyone can build an agenda, add speakers, and manage those last minute changes. Real-time updates and synchronization across your experiences make sure your attendees know what's going on.
We're excited to see what you build with it!

Happy to answer any of your questions!
...and how I accidentally started a research sprint on Twitter.
Building products in secret is hard/no fun. That's why I'm sharing my experience build as I build @SlidesUp. The first post is about using research sprints to inform your product design activities. What topics do you want to hear about next?
Please comment here, on Medium, or @KunalsLab on Twitter.
Interesting. Supporting more AE features is a good plus. Can you talk more about the other goals that are different?
How does this compare to Keyframes, which Facebook released back in November? https://code.facebook.com/posts/354469174916519/keyframes-de...
I met Gary, the founder, through an outdoor fitness group in Boston. He's continuing with the health and wellness theme with his new product, the LifeLight Touch. He's launching it on Amazon after a successful Indiegogo campaign. For all of us who work indoors, LifeLight Touch can make us more energetic and productive. Happy working!
This is a follow up article to one I wrote last year. This time, I'm focusing on lowering the cost of decision making. Would love to hear your thoughts!
I’ve always viewed prototyping tools as a means to an end. Whether I’m building a “looks like” or “works like” prototype, I want to be quick and invest as little time as possible to achieve my goal. In the article, I've focused on a few tools that help me prototype responsive behavior, show transitions and animations, and translate designs for developers.
Would be happy to answer any questions about the article here on Hacker News.
I'm currently working on Part 2 of the article and would love to hear your thoughts. What do you do to take a design concept and make it easier to build?
